Member Stories

The personal connections made through NACAC have made this career rewarding. It is easy to get in the minutiae of your own institution, but NACAC provides opportunities to truly engage and learn from others. The personal friendships created from this profession have helped shape who I am today. I am truly fortunate to know so many intelligent, amazing, and dedicated individuals in this profession. Their abilities and talents have had a profound impact on me.

Karen Chen

Senior Associate Director Undergraduate Admissions, Oklahoma State University

NACAC allows me to be a student of our profession. When I first began formal college counseling, I turned to NACAC to help me to get started. I used the tools and resources available to members to help me learn what I did not know about the application process. I now use NACAC to stay up-to-date on the latest college news and trends.

Jennifer Rubacky Auchmoody

Assistant Director of College Counseling, Bishop McNamara High School (MD)

NACAC has played such a tremendous role in my life. In my career, it has opened many professional opportunities and has introduced me to so many outstanding professionals who became my mentors, my future supervisors, but ultimately lifelong friends. In this profession we tend to attract folks that have a great ability to communicate and have a zest for life.
